 talking.  I would be happy to read from others about how any group, Haitian
 or foreign, is successfully improving Haitian's quality of life by any means
 -- education, health, spiritual, agriculture, water, electric, business,
 etc.   We all love Haiti and we all have different ways to express it.  You

Whenever someone disagrees strongly, it does not follow that they are not
letting people speak.  Let dissenters dissent.  I find it interesting that you
see those offended by the Cunningham post as intolerant and judgemental when the
truth is, that group of Vodou haters are the ones being intolerant and
judgemental.  There are those who may think they are helping when they are not.
Intent is not everything but it helps when being judged for entrance into
Heaven...
